Rice terraces, buffalo, fishing bays and flower hillsides painted in oil

Hand-painted oil paintings or archival canvas prints of rural Vietnam

Browse by theme

Countryside wall art of Vietnam shows rice terraces, flooded paddies with water buffalo, Mekong canals, Da Lat flower hills and fishing bays, many of them with a small figure in a conical hat. Each scene is hand-painted in oil by a senior artist of the Binh Thanh collective, or printed as an archival canvas print.

Paddies, buffalo and egrets

One canvas puts a farmer and a dark buffalo in a flooded field at sunrise, with lavender reflections and lime green shoots. Another stands a grey buffalo in shallow water beside a curving earth path under a pale, even sky. In a third, white egrets lift over the paddies while a dark buffalo wades in the pool below an apricot sky. A close view of bowed rice heads fills a whole canvas with amber grain and clear drops.

Terraces and hill villages

One terrace painting shows curving ridges in amber and olive stepping down a hillside, with white mist between them and houses catching a pink and gold sky. Another lets ripe gold terraces glow below layered green mountains. The Sapa pages hold these terraces, a Hmong market lane with woven baskets and folded cloth, and indigo cloths over dye vats. Broader mountain scenery is gathered in Northwest Vietnam.

Water, boats and flowers

One painting shows a herder wading through golden floodwater with a crowd of ducks, palms and low roofs behind. Three sarus cranes with red heads wade through reeds in dawn mist. Elsewhere round boats float in a pale bay below thatched huts, and a rowing boat crosses a green river under limestone hills. In Da Lat, yellow wild sunflowers crowd a misty hillside and blue and lilac hydrangeas fill a square canvas of flower terraces. Pink water lilies sit beside a village boat, and a black butterfly hovers by pink blossoms.

Choosing a countryside scene for a wall

The amber and olive terrace scenes sit well on a pale wall. The grey green buffalo canvas, with its pale even sky, suits a quiet white one. The rice harvest scene is a tall canvas of golden fields and blue hills, and it fits a narrow stretch of wall.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which countryside scenes include animals?
Buffalo wade through paddies in several canvases, egrets lift over flooded fields, three sarus cranes wade through reeds, and a herder wades through floodwater with ducks.
Are there flower scenes among the rural paintings?
Yes: wild sunflowers on a Da Lat hillside, hydrangeas along a flower terrace path, pink water lilies by a boat, and a black butterfly over pink blossoms.
Which paintings show mountain villages?
Several do. A Hmong market lane shows woven baskets, stalls of folded cloth and wooden houses, indigo cloths hang above round dye vats against green hills, and misty terraces at sunset step down to dark-roofed houses.
Can I find a countryside painting with water rather than fields?
Yes. Choose the fishing bay with round boats, the dusk water with small boats and a trailing net, or the rowing boat on a still green river.
